Quicktime player on mac need help!!!

Question

i have a macbook my quicktime player for some reason wont play these movies and it comes up and says additional software is required for quicktime to playback this media, i have downloaded a lot of software and nothing works... has anyone had this problem before?

Answer 1

After you download it you need to restart the computer to get it to take affect.

Answer 2

It depends on what format your movies are in. If the movie is a mpeg or mpg you need quicktime pro. I would download VLC player. Its free and will let you play a lot of different formats.
